Chapter 52 Gao Yan and Gao Hai

"Stop!"

At the south gate of Qingzhou City, Qin Feng and his companion were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.

Normally, there are only eight people guarding the gate.

But now is an extraordinary period. There are sixteen people guarding the gate alone, there are soldiers patrolling around, and there are also guards on the city wall.

"I am Liu Yehui, and I am here to help in Qingzhou City under the order of the county magistrate of Pingchuan County. This is the written document."

As Liu Yehui spoke, he took out the document from his arms.

Local officials are generally not allowed to leave their jurisdiction.

Even if the prefect called on people around him to come to Qingzhou City for support, local officials were not allowed to move an inch without a special transfer order.

When natural disasters occur, it is obviously a good opportunity for officials to show off their political achievements.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t come, just send someone to help.

As long as the thing is done, you can still get credit for it when the report is submitted.

"Let go!"

After checking the documents, the soldier waved his hand and let the two people in.

On the way here, Liu Yehui told Qin Feng what to do after arriving in Qingzhou City.

The process is very simple. The first step is to visit the prefect.

Given their identities, they naturally couldn't meet the person in person, but that didn't matter. They just had to go there and state their identities and intention to help.

At that time, someone will naturally come to contact them and make appropriate arrangements for the two of them, and Qin Feng can go to treat the wounded.

Finally, when the imperial court issued new policies for disaster victims, their disaster relief process was considered complete.

"Inside and outside the city are two different worlds."

Walking on the streets of Qingzhou City, Qin Feng couldn't help but sigh.

Outside the city, there were disaster victims everywhere, a tragic scene.

But the people in the city were not affected too much. At most, they had a sad look on their faces and muttered about the rising food prices.

Liu Yehui did not respond, but walked straight forward.

Horse-drawn carriages are allowed in the city, but ordinary people are not allowed to ride horses. Two people can only lead the horses and walk slowly forward.

at the same time.

In the main hall of a courtyard in the southwest of Qingzhou City.

Sitting by the stove was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in black.

He was holding a piece of paper in his hand, which was a ciphertext letter that had just been delivered.

He read it quickly, then put it on the charcoal fire and burned it to ashes.

The man's name was Gao Yan, and he was a secret agent of Northern Qi.

But he is not an ordinary spy, but the chief of Northern Qi's spies in Qingzhou Prefecture, and a seventh-rank warrior!
His identity was very secretive, and no one else knew it except for a few close confidants.

On the Northern Qi side, orders were given to him through special channels.

When he came into contact with other secret agents, he always wore a black robe and did not reveal his identity at all.

That’s right, the person who went to Pingchuan County and issued the task to Liao Zhen was Gao Yan!
By now, the news of the earthworms and floods in Wujiang County had reached Northern Qi.

He was assigned a task, which was to develop manpower and recruit people during the disaster.

There are actually two types of spies from Northern Qi in Qing. One type is trained in Qi and then sent to Qing.

The other type is those recruited locally in Qing State.

There are many ways to recruit people, such as catching someone's weakness, offering huge profits, or training them from a young age.

Some of these people knew that they were working for the State of Qi.

Some people may not even know until their death that they are working as spies for Northern Qi, and they think it is just an ordinary act of selling intelligence.

Don't think these people are stupid, they are just ordinary people. Even smart people, so what? Can't smart people make stupid mistakes?

Not necessarily!

Anyone who can enter the Inspection Institute is considered excellent, especially someone like He Youde.

Even if the person was of such a high level as the one in charge of the Eight Departments of the Inspection Institute, didn't Zhu Ge from that department still make the wrong choice?

In this world, there are only a few truly smart people.

"Gao Hai!"

When the letter on the stove was reduced to ashes, Gao Yan immediately shouted towards the door.

Soon, a strong man walked in.

He is Gao Hai, Gao Yan’s cousin, a sixth-grade strength!

"How are the victims outside the city doing?"

"I'm afraid there are more than 30,000 people. In a few days, it may exceed 40,000. The food distributed as disaster relief is not enough. In a few days, people will probably start to die."

In recent days, the most widely spread news in Qingzhou City is about the victims of the disaster.

Gao Hai was also paying attention to these, so when asked, he could answer them immediately.

"Which city gate has more people? Which one is more miserable?"

"Let's go to the north gate. The north gate has the most people. There was a minor riot yesterday, dozens of people died and hundreds were injured. The number of injured people there is the highest."

"In that case, you should go to the North Gate first. In the next few days, you can go to other gates to recruit people. A total of 20 people should be recruited, and it should be done within five days."

"Yes!" Gao Hai nodded.

"Go ahead." Gao Yan waved her hand.

There is no need to explain this kind of task in too much detail, because they have done it before and know how to do it.

These twenty people are definitely not adults, but children. And they should be young, but not too young. At least they should be able to understand what is said. Three to six years old is best, so that their plasticity will be much higher.

After receiving the order, Gao Hai left the yard and went to do his work.

"There are more people at the north gate, the least at the west gate, and about the same number at the south and east gates. Which one should we go?"

After coming out of the government office, Liu Yehui asked Qin Feng.

The two of them had just reported to the government office, but they were not arranged to go to a specific place for treatment. Instead, they were asked to find it themselves.

At that time, Qin Feng asked where there were more patients.

He originally thought that the people in the government office would be very clear about this information. After all, it was a time of disaster and anyone who paid a little attention would know this information.

But what surprised Qin Feng was that the other party didn't even know about it. It was really outrageous!

The officials, warriors, and wealthy families in Wujiang County could easily find a place to stay even if they were fleeing.

But ordinary people, affected by this natural disaster, could do nothing but flee and become refugees.

In the eyes of these officials, Qin Feng could only see their indifference to the victims.

"Let's go to the north gate. There are more people there and we can save more people." Qin Feng said, pointing to the north.

"North Gate?" Liu Yehui was stunned.

Among the four options, the West Gate is the easiest, followed by the South Gate and East Gate, and the North Gate is the most difficult.

Originally he thought that Qin Feng would choose the west gate, or at worst the south gate or east gate, but he didn't expect it to be the north gate, which had the largest number of people and the worst conditions.

Doctor Xiao Qin is worthy of being Doctor Xiao Qin. When he saved his sister, I knew that he was a kind-hearted person.

Now it seems that he is definitely a famous doctor!

"Let's go to the north gate!"

So the two of them walked towards the north gate together.
